I want to make my car fast. And i have the intake, and im looking to get a cam, and a nice set of heads. This car will be a street driven car with those weekend trips to the dragstrip. So the car will also have to make emissions. I want to get the most power i can. What heads do you reccomend? I have heard that victor Jrs are the best but what do you guys think. The car is still speed density but i will be converting it to mass air sometime in the future.
Getting heads for my car, suggestions which ones?

Stock shortblock 302 or a 331 like it says for your screen name? Victor jr's should work awesome on a stroker, but I dont think they have egr ports since you want emissions. If its a stock shortblock car, I recommend trickflow TW heads or the new edelbrock performer heads.

If you want useable power on the street and not just a high rpm only screamer then go with AFR 165's for an N/A application.

cant go wrong with trick flow twisted wedges and the street heat intake they have a nice package you can buy now with the cam valve covers and intake for 2100 from summit
Keep with emmisions legal parts, such as a conservative cam with 114LSA, many good grinds that are emmisions legal, emmisions legal AFR 165, RPM intake, and keep all your smog stuff in place.

I was browsing through on of my mustang magazines when i cam across an add, New gt-40P heads with high performance valve train.... $689/Pair. Is this a good deal? It says they come complete with a high performance valvetrain? Would i be better off with some edelbrock performers? WQHat do you guys think??
The GT-40p heads are a small step up from the stock heads, alum heads would be a step higher as far as performance.
For a street set-up, you can not go wrong with AFR165, TFS TW, or Edelbrock Performer or Performer RPMS (depends on combo), or Holleys.

The AFR's are around $1300, Trickflow-$1200, Edelbrock-$1100...
These are pretty close base prices for these heads without getting to specifice...but you will want some nice springs on there if your going to run a nice cam...
